One-pan feta and cauliflower bake
We've put a whole new spin on the classic cauliflower cheese dish. We made it a complete vegetarian, one-pan meal by adding edamame and feta for protein and satiety, tomatoes for juiciness, and garlic and oregano for flavor. This low carb, higher-satiety meal takes only five minutes to prepare, and the rest of the time is spent in the oven. You know what that means, right? More you time!

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the cauliflower florets in the olive oil then add to a large oven-safe pan or roasting tin. Season with salt and pepper and roast for 20 minutes, until the cauliflower starts to soften.
- Remove the pan from the oven and turn over the florets. Add the edamame, cherry tomatoes, garlic, oregano, chili flakes (if using), and vegetable stock. Cover with foil and return the pan to the oven for 30 more minutes.
- Remove the pan from the oven and squish the tomatoes gently with a fork to release the juices. Crumble over the feta cheese and bake, uncovered, for another 10 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and scatter fresh basil leaves over the top and serve.
